History

Established in 1980.

The idea originated one night when John was working at the USPS. He and a co-​worker, Jim, were sorting mail when the conversation turned to greenhouses. Both had noticed that in an area of 100,000+ people, there were few places to buy plants. (Keep in mind, this was before the days when you could get your plants at the same place you got your groceries or tools.) Jim, who already had a seasonal greenhouse, suggested John open one as well. John and his sister opened the first location in Springfield on South Campbell.
